Merchandising uses a mapping component to map Search Testing properties to properties returned in the search response XML file. This provides an easy way to configure Search Testing to support different search options, such as SKU indexing or grouping by product (for more information on these options, see Using Grouping). You can also update the mapping to accommodate custom property names in your search response XML.
The property mapping component is:
atg/search/testing/SearchTestingUIPropertyMappingThe sections that follow describe the default property mappings for each supported search configuration:
